thebees Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Do you remember Smokey Joes? it was where the Furniture House was. That was a great venue for bands. Funny you mention Port Soderick, we went ther for lunch on Monday....but it was closed, the little arcade (that was) has gone to wreck and ruin. There was a 'bit of a do' down there years ago, some really ace techno band were on and there was a disco afterwards. Its such a shame the govt dont help these little places take off again. Does Mr Jessop still own PS? I thought that chef chap owned it now. Who ever owns it should try having a few nights down there with subsidised taxis (like what the Melt nights in Laxey have)ed. or even hire the venue out. It would be really great to have a night like the TT week one from ages ago, again. I'd even volunteer my time free to help if anyone (with the the owners' permission) wants to try arranging something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
